Demi Lovato Has Checked Into A Rehabilitation Facility

After her release from the hospital, Demi Lovato has checked into a rehabilitation clinic. As it was previously reported, the 25-year-old singer updated her fans on Instagram yesterday, August 5th, and revealed she needed to take some time to focus on her “sobriety and road to recovery.”

According to a report from TMZ and Just Jared, on Saturday, medical professionals released her from the hospital, and the star took a private plane to the facility, which is not far outside of California.

Reportedly, Demi’s team encouraged her to get rid of negative and potentially corrupting influences, and instead, surround herself with people who are actively helping her get better.

In a number of different interviews, Demi spoke candidly about her struggles with both mental health problems as well as substance abuse.

The star explained that her father, as well, suffered from drug addiction his entire life. In one interview, Lovato stated she never could figure out why her father preferred to take drugs, rather than look after his family.
